Christmas Crafts and Glühwein Night

What?
To celebrate the winter season, join us for a cosy evening of painting, crafting, glühwein and Christmas cookies!
We’ll provide everything you need to get creative: canvas, paints, brushes, crafts materials and ideas on what to paint and make - plus Christmassy drinks and snacks! All you need to do is bring a glass or cup to drink from.
Running Dinner
What?
VMI invites you to Running Dinner – the tastiest way to meet new people!
At the running dinner, you will eat a three-course dinner during the evening (while preparing one of these courses yourself), followed by an after-party at OAT with everyone who participated in the running dinner!
Team up with a partner (office mate, flat mate, …) and cook one course at your place for you and four other people. You will go to someone else’s place for the other courses, and will host two other teams for the course that you cook. Overall, you meet twelve people during the evening! There even is a Wikipedia entry for Running Dinners (English version)!
